Currently, KIES is not supported by Verizon. Unfortunately, Verizon sold us a watered down version of the Galaxy Note II. A lot of apps supported by other carriers are not supported by Verizon, such as multiwindow (they gave us a lite version of this apps), S-calander, and several other apps.

Kies is totally a great application for device correspondence from browser management so I know it's very important for you to have these capabilities. At the moment, Kies live (desktop version) for management and syncing is not supported on the Note 2. However, even with that said, may I please ask what you were looking to sync from device to device? There are more than a few third party applications that you can locate via the Play Store depending on what you're trying to do. I think it's definitely worth a shot taking a look at.

just to correct the above post. kies live IS in fact supported by the Note II.....just not verizon's version. we shouldn't have to download other apps to do what this phone does, stock, on every other carrier.
